Hi, my name is Jeff. I have been building websites and such for about 11 years now. I'm currently doing George Lowe's (voice of space ghost) personal website. I'm also in the process of redoing my portfolio site, so it isn't the best example, but if you'd like to take a look, it's JeffAlbeck.com

I've done a couple adult swim fansites. Which have gotten me in contact with a lot of [as] bigwigs, like Dave Willis, and Pete Smith.

At my previous job, we used wordpress exclusively, so I'm very comfortable turning it into a content management system, and creating themes.

I'm very interested, but not local. I'm in NJ. But I'm good over the phone and by email!

I can help out. I work in Northridge.My website and my blogI have experience with all those programs still a little ruff with Harmony(transitioning from flash). I haven't used maya in a long time, But I am always willing to learn. I pick programs up pretty well. I have built blogs in both blogger/wordpress.

John Kedzie and I are a dynamic duo that could probably help you out with this if you're interested. We live in the Valley over in Northridge. We're both animation BA graduates, I'm mostly 2D with CG texturing experience, and John is mostly CG with coding, flash, and maya experience.

Some of your anatomical distortions make Picasso look like a wimp. I've got painting skills, both traditional and digital, but unfortunately I am not familiar with any of the software that would make me useful to you at the moment. I can whip out some bg's...Hehe...that would be a totally gay statement if I spelled it 'Beegees.' Good luck on your project and on finding a good hand.

I don't live near you....in fact I live thousands of miles away in London...but i'm a vfx artist fluent in maya, photoshop, fcp, nuke shake etc etc who would be more than willing to help in any way I can.

Here's my current reel - http://vimeo.com/25214930

I'm at work, so I can't send any of my sketches to you now but i'll try and get them to you this weekend. Seriously, if there's anything at all I can do to help then please let me know.

As much as I want to get a foot in the door, it doesn't seem like the most sensible idea to leave a job of 15 years and move clear across the country to compete with hundreds of equally qualified people for a part time gig. I'd drop this in a minute for a solid offer of a "full size" job, but part time help sounds more like something a local should go for.

It also doesn't help that the list of apps I'm versed in isn't a full match-Flash instead of Harmony, Blender instead of Maya. I could learn them quickly, I'm sure, but there's bound to be people who live there and have and know them already.

Whether or not those candidates are as simpatico with the same influences and approaches is a different question. I'm certainly a case of someone that grew up in the same era and was primarily influenced by the same range of specific sources. There's bound to be plenty just going by all the commenters that come here, though.

It sounds like a nice opportunity for someone who lives there already and fits the bill.

Hey John, I'd love to do any kind of work for you, but there are limitations. First of all, I'm 14 and you probably want older people with more experience in the field. Second, I would only be able to come up for a short time during the summer (considering I live on the exact opposite side of the country.) I have some experience with Photoshop and basic knowledge of Final Cut, and am currently getting broken in on Toon Boom. I am also skilled in Flash and have taken several courses at RISD in computer animation & claymation.

I'm a huge fan of your work and you've impacted my general artistic style greatly. I love to work at drawing the expressions of your characters, especially Ren. I've also read through all of your cartoon lessons and have purchased DVDs of the work you were heavily involved in, such as the Ripping Friends, and two Yogi Bear shorts that I downloaded.

Currently, I am working on creating a Looney Tunesesque web series that revolves around characters getting into surreal situations, similar to some of your Ren & Stimpy shorts.

I'd really love to work with you just for the experience. To be honest, you're the main reason I've become passionate about becoming an animator. You are, to me, what Bob Clampett is to you. I also can do voice acting and various impressions of celebrities (two of which are Ren and Stimpy.)

I am willing on moving for however long the project takes. Although you want someone close I think we could communicate effectively via video conferencing, screen sharing, cellphone. I work with photoshop, illustrator, web development, web design, User interface and user experience. I am also an illustrator and painter.

I don't have a lot of professional experience. But I am willing to offer my services where it may be of use to you. I am currently trying to develop my skills and hope to go back to school within the next coming year. I am willing to work for free, if it means being able to work with you and being a part of your hard work to develop something beautiful for others to enjoy.

This link does not have all of my work. I have done more, but unfortunately had a lot of my art destroyed by water damage before I could upload it. Please feel free to contact me about your expectations and my ability to fulfill them.

Get with the program pal! You can use Skype to direct people from anywhere. Why on earth would anyone have to live in driving distance.

I don't want to question the benefits of having someone in-house of course, but I do find it funny that even with all of these new, easily accessible options for communication, studios still have to have EVERYONE near by. WHY?

There are a lot of talented people only able to work out of their home office, that aren't being accessed by studios.

I watched a video of a director whom was directing from skype, right inside the soundbooth with the actor. The sound director set a laptop up in the booth and it looked like it was working like magic. The director could talk with the actor through skype and "see" the performance"

Don't studio cost BUTT-LOADS of cash. Why is this not considered a great option in our new digital, fast paced era.

Last time I checked, sending a large mov file via secure internet, is much faster than fedex.

BTW Jon, I don't know what kind of person you are looking for exactly... I'm pretty capable in Flash Photoshop, Illustrator. I even used to animate for you under Bob and Kathy's direction. (nothing bad to say about either, just lovely talented people)

I know I live here in Canada and for some reason, directors don't like contracting to here. Whats up with that? Personally, i think they are crazy not to see the benefits.

Vancouver is starved for work, and there are more talented people than me willing to work on a nice little contract, if they can just make an honest buck from it.

Either way good luck with the search. I've always loved the fact I could say I animated on Ren and Stimpy. To me, it's better than any disney credit. So I owe ya in big way. Otherwise I never would have had experience animating classically.

I kept some Ren Seeks Help roughs as a momento. Up on my wall :) I miss those days.

Hi John, i am familiar with adobe full-line of products, Autodesk MAYA, pc and mac efficient. I will be in the LA area in 2 weeks , and I'd happily in you area until job completion. I'm very hardworking and dedicated.

I am interested in the part time opportunity you have available. I recently moved to Glendale, CA from the midwest, and I am looking for some part time work. I have a strong knowledge of all the software you listed. I recently graduated with a B.F.A. in Animation. You can find my Blog with examples of my work at - My blog and you can view my portfolio at - My Portfolio

oh there's one great opportunity your offering, hope you find a good artist for the job.about the blur in the third image, how is that working for you? don't you rather draw the blurs than simulate them.

I hope to hear from you soon and I do have to say, working on my first Animated series myself right now, you are and have been my biggest influence with Ren and Stimpy, greatest cartoon of all time by far. My email is joe@dashryderproductions.com and i hope to hear from you soon!

JK, you've some really heavy hitters offering help.Unfortunately I'm too far away to physically visit but should internet collaboration prove more viable for you in the future, I'd be happy to offer my skills:

Note: You're probably not gonna like the animation part. Nearly all my animation employers wanted cheap Disney-ish stuff. The morph plate animation techniques shown near the end proved invaluable for live action work.

Hey John - huge fan! I run a little illustration/design company (located here) and believe I could be of some use to you! =) Feel free to shoot me an email (allison@brownbair.com) if you're interested.

Thanks so much for 1.being awesome, and 2.your consideration ... in that order.

Hey, JOHN K!!!!!!! I live in Long Beach and have degrees in Recording Engineering and I've got quite the project studio too!!!! I will GLADLY work for you for FREE. I love you and all you do. Plus, I had a dream that I worked for you recently so you kinda have to hire me. Hit me back, uh..... you said "clickable" right? Sorry. Oh, I have skills with Adobe CS too. Sorry..... again. I can send a cover letter & resume ASAP if necessary.

I am a professional blogger and have a lot of experience when it comes to making all this stuff work as opposed to the creation of graphics, etc... My website is aBlogtoRead.com, and I write for other blogs as well - I am a former attorney.

Whether on this project or in the future. I am a 20 year fan of your work and would be honored to work with you having just moved back to Los Angeles. Keep up all that you do...
